I'm a full-stack developer from France, I've been building open-source software for the last 12 years, and I plan on doing this full-time in 2021 onwards.
I write TypeScript libraries for privacy-first, secure and accessible web apps, and publish what I learn on my blog.
My core values and beliefs are:
- Transparency : build in the open, with open-source tech, for the open-source community
- Privacy : nobody should benefit from selling personal data
- The web should remain open : nobody should own or monopolize it, it belongs to us all
In 2021, my most successful project, the Arduino MIDI Library, reached 1k+ stars and generated a lot of engagement: people are constantly asking me for advice on how to build synths, MIDI controllers and other musical instruments. I decided to open the project to external maintainers to give me a hand, and the collaboration has been a great success.
